i'm a fan of bespoke.
study different style, and hire a tailor to make one for you. suits are bloody gross unless you find one that fits perfectly. i never been a fan of calvin klein/ralph lauren suits; more into the french or italians. the former yugoslavia used to have some great tailors. check thrift shops too -- look for some where the label is in a european language you can't understand. you might be pleasantly suprised.

Hi...
I am trying to buy something for my husband, but I don't know what they are called..... can you help?
These stand were around a few decades ago, and I am looking for one.
It is a peice of furniture. It has (almost like a coat hanger) arms at the top for mans suit jacket, and just under that is a pole that goes across for pants to hang over, and down lower there is a seat or a ledge for mens shoes etc.
Can someone please help and tell me what they are called (and if anyone has seen one, where you can get one from)
Thanks for you time!
That's right!..... Thanks so much Nancy! You are so right.... do you think I could remember though!
Thank you so much!More

In the business world, certainly at most management levels, men are pretty much mandated to wear a suit and tie in many parts of the world.
What are the reasons for this?
Are the demands placed around uniformity of male appearance as restrictive and stultifying to personal expression and freedom as some argue the Hijab is in the Middle East?
Might one extend the argument that capitalism is the religion of the OECD, and the business suit is much a mandatory way of dressing as the Hijab?
How far would such an argument hold water?
What do you think of the comparison?
Are suits a symbol of male oppression?More
Asked by: Twilight
On one level, that is in context of the oppression of everyone in some way by the social and cultural structures of our lives, yes it could be seen as a form of oppression.
On another level, the more everyday one which incorporates theory but doesn't necessarily accommodate it, suits are probably more equivalent to a uniform.
Something, that is, that people who choose to align themselves with a certain type of organisation wear to fit in, honour or show allegiance wear.
However, I don't think it's any coincidence that 'liberationist' theories and a trend to casualisation in many sectors of the workforce (western) have coincided in time.
There is an apparent point of comparison with the hijab. *Theoretically* both suits and hijab are worn as a matter of personal choice in order to externally show an internal allegiance to a belief system. In practice, however, both are *culturally* required to show allegiance to a wider mores, and refusal to wear the garment send a message of non-acceptance or refusal to 'fit in'.
As others have pointed out, refusal to wear suits is rarely met with imprisonment or physical penalty, but it can mean being refused promotions or access to power in the workplace because the non-wearer is seen as not 'appropriate'.
